Liz Palmer Joins the Judging Panel for the 2020 Canadian Marketing Association Awards

Award-winning journalist, author, and founder of UpSocial Wine and Spirits Agency Liz Palmer will be on the judging panel for this year’s 2020 Canadian Marketing Association (“CMA”) Awards.

Liz will be a judge in the Canadian Marketing Association Awards alongside leading marketing professionals in Canada. This will be the first year that the awards show will be hosted virtually. All entries were submitted by cut-off date July 20th, 2020 and will be reviewed by the CMA for completeness and then assigned to judges. This year Liz’s expertise has landed her as a judge for the “Business Impact” category.

“I’m very honoured to be a judge for this year’s CMA Awards, and looking forward to reviewing the best in Canadian marketing and seeing some of the top creative and innovative campaigns that Canadian marketers have produced.”

2020 CMA [Canadian Marketing Association] Awards – Judging Commences Today

I’m thrilled to participate as a Judge in this year’s CMA Awards in the Business Impact Discipline.

2020 shows another record number of entries. Judging commences today across six disciplines: brand building, business impact, customer experience, engagement, innovative media and martech. Within each discipline, entries compete with campaigns in one of nine categories (automotive, business, consumer products, consumer services, financial, food & beverage, health care, retail and social causes). In addition, nominations are accepted for Marketer of the Year and Lifetime Achievement Award, and a select panel of judges select the Top Cause and Best of the Best winners, from the top entries across their respective disciplines and categories.

This November, the CMA Awards Gala will be virtual. The marketing community loves to celebrate. Stay tuned for further details!

Good luck to everyone !
